With the skins CCP has a really easy way to punish teams, they can simply deny them prizes for their next win or worse depending on circumstances.

Although the starting at 100km thing really has me puzzled, how the fuck do you not notice that and just start.

I'm going to guess it was partly due to CCP wanting to recover the schedule - in our match we had 1 minute from landing on the field to the match starting, which is barely enough time to check that all the cameras are working, overviews are working etc. for them.

To be fair, that is literally the one thing they would have needed to check (warp in range) as everything else should be sorted out ahead of time.

That's pretty shitty. I can sort of appreciate wanting to catch up to the schedule, but 1 minute is really pushing it. Technically you have to check all your modules and make sure they work correctly. You just can't do that. I mean fuck, you'd be luckily if your battleships have landed before the 30s countdown started :P

Yeah I was still sorting out my modules, grouping drones, making sure everything was online, links were up etc. when the match started and I had the easiest ship to fly. I think on comms I just said to jam anything + shoot the Exequror, not exactly the most comprehensive set of orders.

I get the CCP enforcement of drugs and implants is something the players can't do, but why did no one on the other team notice their opponents were kind of far off? If you of you complain in local about rule breaking something should happen.
